  • If the Saab driver hit the top speed of 240 km/h instead of less than 230 Km/h, the Saab will be less than 2 second behind BMW. I have hit close to 240 Km/h many times, it is always the running out of open safe road that stop the speed. I know it is the hand that is sweating. People who don't know Saab think that when its hit 220+ the car is tuned. By the way, my 96 Saab 9000 CSE (16 yrs old )is still with me today and still going strong tailgating rich folks cars.

  • i love saab

    

  • i dont understund why everyone compare these cars....

    "its a 10 years age diffrence", "if the saab was tuned...., "the bmw got more horse power"

    who gives a shit. bmw.s are in a whole other league then saab.

    (i dont mean to offend any saab "lovers", but thats the way it is)

  • @sweduden you obviously have never driven a saab lol.

  • @Silligk lol, i sure have!

  • @sweduden I understand what you're saying, but it's more realistic to compare the car within it's year. How about we compare airplanes from the 40's to those of the 90's too? That's stupid, Even compared against BMWs of the same year, the Saab 9000 won't win, but it does put up a great fight. We could compare other things like cargo room and fuel efficiency (instead of straight horsepower) and all around the 9000 is again a great car.

  • @marknhlski i totally agree with you. i just meant that compearing these two cars in a "race" is stupid. the 9000 is a great car, but it cant stand up to a m5 even the older ones like e34 in a race. but like u said it does put up a fight.

  • @sweduden Yea that makes sense. I've never owned or ridden in an older M5, so I'm not sure how they would compare. From the little I know of the newer BMWs, I saw that they got a lot faster in 2004-2006 range and those cars will dust any of the older Saabs or BMWs and agreed, there isn't much of a point to comparing them. Apples and oranges.

  • @ DJBrennanheart: Ich hab ne Aubildung als Porsche-Mechaniker, ich weiss wie gute Autos sein sollen ;-) Und da brauch ich mich nit mit nem "Kanaken-BMW" zu messen. :-p

    

  • Na da hast aber Glück.. ich maloche 40std inner woche fürne scheiss metall firma und kann mir nix anderes leisten,....... aber Mein 9000er macht mir spass vorallem nachm Stage3 umbau........ 320+ pferde aus 4 zylinder.....die definition des turbolochs war noch nie soooo geil... :P und nen "kleinen" porsche schaff ich auch... letztens nen boxter "weggepustet".......(egal ob der besitzer zu blöd war den rechten fuß zu benutzen... aber ich hab ihn mit wonne überholt)

  • I have choosen a Saab 9000 2.3 Turbo for the family - it is a safe, reliable and well-equipped car. Well-thought, lots of space for the kids (and theit toys), lots of space for the shopping (no need to explain, do I?)

    Excellent car for winter (we currently live in Sweden).

    Plus, I can have some fun (I usually get away with it, since we are both car lovers, my wife and me)

    We both do not want to miss it anymore, it's even better than a van Allthough Saab is dutch these days - excellent car.

  • Funny how some people needs to trash Saab because this car can't keep ud with a car with 10 years newer technology and about 2.5 times the horsepower - what is so surprising about that?

    Compare it with a 1996 323ti or 325i would be more realistic and fair race.

    Lol; " nu sticker han, tryck tryck tryck!! " - " jag trycker, jag trycker!!! "

  • @kibidk I've owned both cars that you mention. I now own a 97 M3. My Saab 9000, which is still with me, destroys the 325IS I had, and does a great job at chasing the M3.

    Comparing to a 2006 M5 is indeed pointless. Compare the car within its year and realize the Saab 9000 was/is a phenomenal car. I love mine. 201,000 miles currently and still going strong, fit a washer and dryer in the back at the same time, and when opportunity presents itself - rarely do I lose a race on the highway..

  • lol.. i blow the most of the "kanaken bmw" away .. u cant drive... or ur saab has not the right set up.....greets from ger

  • bmw is bmw!!!

  • if you are looking at a 10 age diffriance and 307 HP diffriance the Saab is doing very good.

  • @potrebnifukec and that's the point of video no like karapuzikass didn't recieve it..

  • The nationalism on here is disgusting.

    Saab makes [made] good cars. BMW makes good cars. By nature, one will be faster than the other. Saab didn't make I4's to compete with BMW's V6's/ V8's...

    I could make unfounded, low-blows on here all day but I don't.

    The 9000 is a different breed than the M5 and is an entire decade older, so everybody stop their bitching about who can google the fastest.

  • Scheiss auf BMW...Saab the real thing..thats it.....Saab, bestes Auto was gibt

  • @DimmeDriver I love saabs and volvos and hate bmws but you seriously think you could tune that Saab to m5 speed for 100 dollars ? Would love to know what you would do for such little money??

  • 2006 or more new SAAB 9-5 aero would eat that BMW M5 alive :) and i saw comment that you would need AUDI RS6 to keep up with M5... bullshit... old RS2 about 1994yer would eat that BMW :) second one thing. SAAB 9000 is 4 cylinders, and M5 is at least 6 cylinders with at least 3.5 liters motor... :D so SHAME FOR M5... SAAB 100% better....

  • @karapuzikass LOL - M5 499HP 0-60 in 4.5 seconds - SAAB DON'T MAKE ANY THAT FAST LOLOLOL

  • @karapuzikass There isn't ANY stock SAAB that will beat that M5!! - not even the 2.3 HOT Aero with a 0-60 of 6.5 seconds could beat it - so get your facts right bud......just go to parkers website and check the stats...lol and your RS2 is 0-60 in 4.8 seconds - the BM in this clip does it in 4.5 seconds - so you lose fella.....lol and lets not forget about the torque the M5 produces so even at rolling speeds, your SAAB and Audi still lose..boohoo for you..

  • That saab is not even tuned. Look at the turbo, the pressure is very low. With a 100 dollars change you can eat that BMW alive.

  • Was the BMW trying?

  • the 1991 saab 9000 turbo hatchback is my favorite saab. its got alot of power for a 20 year old car with 4 cylinders!! :)

  • yeah true it's a good effort from the old Saab, but the M5 is way too quick to compare, you'd need a big Audi RS6 to keep up with an M5

  • @alleywatson Agreed, but this was fun to watch nonetheless. The Saab 9000 is their last great model.

  • I was doing the same with an M3 and I was driving my 9-5, when after about 30 minutes my turbo exploded at 250 km/h LOL. The M3 was really fast, but I was in front when my engine failed....

  • LOL the BMW is probably in 6th haha (it's got 7speed LOL)

  • @xReventonx: whatever... it's just cruizing away, while we were sweating. hehe

  • @lechistani hahaha yeah no shit, I would have done the same with my 9-5 in sports mode, would have still got owned too with top speed of 260kmh on the saab and 300 something on the BMW LOL

  • @xReventonx Unlimited M5 can do at least 200 mph/321 kph. Well, at 507 ps, what would you expect... :-) It is in a different league. Traffic kills all highway racing...

  • Road on Saint-Petersburg?

  • My dad has exactly the same car not sure about the year tho but when i get my driver's licence i'll be allowed to drive it ;) can't wait!

  • And then ?

  • You have a boost problem bro

  • @rkjer Nah, more and likely the hose feeding the gauge has fell, or popped off resulting in normal atmospheric pressure showing, it should be much further round to the right at this sort of rpm. Mine used to pop off often when I gave it some hard stick, hasn't done it since I actually glued it in place!!

    Great vid, course there's no match to the BM nut even at over 200km/h it seemed safe and surefooted, gives me confidence in my own 2.3 full pressure turbo!

  • rather have the saab anyday

  • Hmm in the description you say that the Saab only max'ex 220km/h and the BMW 260, stopid comment..

  • @peniskultur varför skriver du på engelska när dom är svenskar?

  • if you notice on the dash, the saab is not even getting into boost. ;)

  • I want to buy a car for 3-4000e,i was thinking to but a Mercedes e200 '93-'95 or a Saab 9-3 or 900/9000.Saab to me is a more practical car than Merc,but then again the Merc I think wins by character and I think that Merc is a car chosen with the brain and Saab with a heart...or something like that,anyway don't know what to chose.

  • Were talking what... a 2.3 against a 4.9 approx

    It was never going to catch the m5 and the M5 is a lovely car but the 9000 certainly didn't embarrass itself power wise.

    Both are great cars in there own right but for different purposes.

  • The 9000 is the most bomb proof car I've ever owned, never broken down in 5 years of ownership !! and it only cost me £300

    The Saab was waaay cheaper and practicality wise it could take huge items in the back of it, mattresses, fridges, washing machines etc etc, M5 certainly couldnt.

  • what a fucking good car,they don't make cars like they used too,i'm talking about Mercedes and Saab,the other brands are behind,i'm talking of course about the 80s and 90s.When GM bought Saab they ruined the company...bastards.

  • @SacreDro I totally agree, Ford have done the same thing with volvo ruining there longevity and reliability record.

  • Sjukt, tkr att min 9000 som är chippad till 210 hkr går bra, sen ser man detta finns bara ett ord sjukt,

  • that's pretty good for something you can pick up for like 7 or 8 grand

  • What's the point of this vid ?

    Sorry , I just don't get it.

    Apples and pears.

  • Just proud to run at 230, I guess... They don't have enough money to fly in a plane, so they drive a car at 230...

  • want to see rollin 60km/h to 250 km/h and we can see saab long behind...

  • That bmw is friggin fast I want it lol

  • Bra försök iallafall! Du skulle haft en 225 hk motor istället så hade det kanske gått ännu snabbare

  • @B7LA

    själlvklart... finnar kan inte köra ;) Mine is doing much better

  • и чек энжин горит...

  • в России-б такие дороги - Я до 215 набирал на 9000 cd 1989г.в.

  • Comment removed

  • the bmw is limited electronical at 250 km but the saab has a linear vector engine

  • bmw har elektronisk fartgräns vid 250 som sagt... så de går nog lika snabbt

  • @bmwfarsta hahahaah

  • ser ut som saaben laddar lite dåligt

  • din saab var skit fan min saab 9000 2.3turbo med 300 hk hade knullat bmw m5 min saab toppa 315 km utan problem

  • Ljug lite till, så kanske du tror på det själv? :)

  • ställ på laddtrycket o soppa så blir det bättre.!!

  • Saab is bullshit vs bmw .. Get over !

  • You should see a doctor.

  • No, i prefer your mom

  • my god what a transmission

  • lol!! i know. :-( I mean his evo was fast, he sold that about a month ago though. :-D The person he sold his saab too, was a friend, and now my dads asking if he wants to sell it back. lol Kinda Pointless even buying the evo. lol.

  • cool vid - Kind of makes me want to drive both my (now tha M5 has a virtual v12) which is great I am nlt a hater or lover of BMW or Saab I own them both, One thing I can say is that my Beamer cost me more money over the past years then my Saab but still love her. Both are stick 996 525i

    - Saab 2003 9-3 2.0T ARC (same as aero but with out spoilier)

    IM gona Mod them both soon ;D

  • Mayerische Motoren Werke<3

  • SAAB FOREVER

  • saab is a cool car. i got one two it is a saab 900 turbo intercooler

  • well, the M5 does have at least 2 liters on the 9000... as they say, there's no substitute for cubic inches.

    for a 2.3 liter 4-banger to stay with a V-8 is pretty good, IMHO

    cheers!

  • the e60 m5 has a v10, not a v8, the previous models, e39 had v8's

  • i bet YOU ride nothing but skateboard

  • men upp på femman då och bränn bmw vafaan! :P

  • Respect! :)

  • leave the Saab alone 75randomdan75

    sack of crap is it?

    let me remind you the saab is from 1997 and the bmw is from around today! the Saab was not built as a sports car, the saab was cheaper and the saab is way more reliable!

    check your facts next time before you come out with another load of bullshit!

  • @TheJonnyDude That SAAB tops out at 146mph - the BMW is limited to 155mph - without the limiter it will do 200mph+ - so there's no way in hell that SAAB could catch that BM - look at the vid - the BM brakes before the SAAB catches up...lol

  • i drive this same saab as in video.

    i can say first hand, that is a damn fast bimmer

  • haha you are crazy if the bmw driver will put gas on he will pass you like a bitch

  • go..went..gone

  • pretty bright brakelights

  • Not bad considering all the mentioned differences between the two. The BMW has youth technology on its side..However the Saab didn't look foolish.

    When one considers engine capabilities, equipment options, and price...Saab's are a excellent choice!...and James Bond 007 drove both;)

  • Saab all the way

  • I wouldnt want to drive next sabb going that fast wreck city.

  • det där är inte någon m5a

  • Chasing an M5??? Come on lets be honest, I have a 850 T5 so i'm not biased, but that M5 was just playing. Did you see how much he pulled on the Saab when he buried the throttle? Anyone else see that? This Sabb couldn't even pull past 220km/h, my T5 will pull all the way to 245km/h and would still get a total owning from an M5 anytime, anyday, end of. Sorry guys but it's true

  • It's true the Saab would not have a real chance of competing with the M5, but it still does an ok job keeping up for a while especially considering the age and price difference of the two cars. After all there not really even comparable, I say that even though I am a Saab owner and enthusiast :)

  • That's my point though, was he really keeping up? The M5 was just cruising along minding it's own buisness at about 120 mph and as soon as the Saab turned up the M5 disapeared off the radar! :) Nothing against Saab though, they are great cars and along with Volvo they are often underestimated

  • come on, I never even thought I would catch up. besides, if you read the video description:

    Notice that at the end of the video, the saab goes 200km/h in 4th gear, while the BMW probably goes in 5th gear and is still disappearing. :)

  • Yeah I know, just replying to some other people's comments who watched this video under the impression that the Saab was actually keeping up with the M5. It wasn't anything against your video post though :)

  • SAAB =Sensational-Awsome-Amazing-Be­autiful

  • REAL CARS COMES FROM SWEDEN !!

    Volvo and Saab aswell,comes from Sweden,they both are fast and safe to drive,100 points to Saab

  • @Taaviots i crashed a 9000, i agree 100 % but i would love a e34 m5

  • @Taaviots I'm sorry - NO fast cars come from Sweden...lol - I do like some of your recipes for meatballs tho...lol

  • @diaboliq20 koenigsegg is swedish so you failed so hard that I will go and do some meatballs and read your retarded comment all day long

  • @ButcherAkatsuki lol - if you're watching a video of a sh*tty SAAB you can't afford a Koenigsegg - but, when you guys come up with Volvo's.....really - who's the retard?....lolol - and what's with people these days "You failed".....???......what's the matter - can't think of anything intelligent to say? lol - tell me - what do u drive butt catcher akatsuki??

  • @diaboliq20 hahahhah, so retarded this is hilarious hahha, you said no fast cars comes from sweden, and I said koenigsegg is swedish so you were wrong. And you start talk bout what I'm driving, what we can have afford, volvos, and that I didn't tell you something intelligent . You might be the most retarded person I've ever met on youtube, what the fuck does this have to do with that I just told you? can't admit you were wrong? koenigsegg is swedish and one of the fastest cars in the world, omfg

  • @ButcherAkatsuki lol - yeah - I'm retarded - you're right - I could call you all sorts of names, but that would be an insult to all those people...lol - wait a minute - Koenigsegg......don't they use a BRITISH cast engine block from Grainger and Worrall??? hhhmmm very Swedish indeed......

  • @diaboliq20 You just make the engine from SWEDISH DESIGNS, so you are just the work ants so stfu

  • @ButcherAkatsuki What's the matter - are the Swedish THAT sh*t they can't make it themselves - listen - I've seen Swedish desings - in IKEA - lol....wouldn't buy anything outta there either......lol.....so you "stfu" - what are you......like 12 or something????? - Go back to watching Naruto u N.e.d.

  • han stökör han tönkör vi ses hahah bmw power ;)

  • BMW THE ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE.

  • ^^^ Yes, for total cocks

    SAAB: 1 - German car built for bank managers :0

    ;-)

  • You mean for guys that actually do have cocks. I have one so...BMWs ARE THE ULTIMATE DRIVINF MACHINE

  • Where are the real cars? Like Volvos?

  • Now that's what I'm talking about, never underestimate the power of an old Saab :-)

  • Chasing an M5??? Come on lets be honest, I have a 850 T5 so i'm not biased, but that M5 was just playing. Did you see how much he pulled on the Saab when he buried the throttle? Anyone else see that? This Sabb couldn't even pull past 220km/h, my T5 will pull all the way to 245km/h and would still get a total owning from an M5 anytime, anyday, end of. Sorry guys but it's true

  • Härligt !!!

  • Hahhaha fyy faan

  • 1st class! 5 stars

  • my dad used to own a sabb 9000 2.3 turbo sport i think it was a 1992 model and man was it fast i loved it but my dad sold it and got an evo instead.

  • I once owned a 9k 2,3turbo, slightly modified...

    vmax was 160mph and acceleration was comparable to upper class of BMW or Mercedes. I often challenged those cars on german Autobahn, and I loved their humiliated expressions in their faces when I overtook them because their cars bolted at 155 ;)))

  • Holy f! Sounds lika an jetairliner

  • 9000 aero's and 9-3 viggens are the nicest. 9-5 aero's are nice too. all you ave to do to increase the top speed is adjust the gearing.

  • er m5 has topspeed over 320kmh.. saab will be lucky to go over 300kmh, but a properly tunned saab has greater accleration than bmw m5.. i know there is a saab that does 40-250 kmh in 14 sec .. which is pretty damn fast for a i4 engine

  • put an m5 against a 95 Aero 2003-4

    i guarantee you that would make an incredible race...my tuned 2000 95 Aero with 265hp/310Tq wins over M3's =D

  • you know what i say, Bullshit

  • hahahahahahaahaa

  • a tuned aero like johan p's would make mincedmeat of it on the track with a way bigger power to weight ratio. check out the video: 700 hp saab aero

  • yeahhh saab to the max XD

  • Faktiskt underhållande. Kul att höra kommentarerna i bilen också. SAABen hängde ju på förvånansvärt bra också. Fin väg för övrigt. Vilken vägsträcka är detta? Småland?

  • Saaben din är inte frisk va? den laddar ju på Grundladdtryck i slutet av filmen?

  • the saab tops the speed of about 225 km/h but the BMW's speed LIMIT is at 250 km/h, the speed of the BMW would be approx. 300 km/h without the limitation put in the chip.

  • Sorry to say... but talking bout a tuned saab with turbo's... Isn't that unfair towards a normal M5?

    Tuned saab with turbos vs tuned M5 with turbos is only fair

  • Why unfair? The bmw has over 500 bhp, saab had no chance.

  • Ofcourse, so why say things like: a tuned saab could do this and this..

    I mean, a normal saab cannot cope up with a M5. A tuned saab cannot cope up with a tuned M5.

    Guess thats all that is to it. BMW > Saab

    I drive a saab 95 btw ;)

  • i agree with you. still saabs are good value for money. and you can power 'em up easily, for less money than it would take to do the same with a M5. but then again, if you have the dough to buy a new M5, u also have the money to prep it up some more. guess saabs will remain the poor mans race machines. althou the new 95 turbo X is a nice one!

  • poor mans race machines MY ASS xD

    Saab is great dude, it's obvious that you will not be able to race an M5 but come on your car reaches 200 Km/h+ stock and it's WAY WAY WAAAY cheaper, just a few mods and you could kick this guy's ass. Saab it's the best(and the only) that GM has nowadays

  • Saab 9000 $5000

    BMW M5 $100000

    No comments

  • truth.

  • Thank you! Just picked up a CSE for 5k. And let's see the M5 race a Wisconsin highway in January. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  • You can begin to buy a aero then tuned it.

    Then you maybe can drive in that speed ;)

  • thanx, but as said, i never expected to catch up with the M5. but a tuned saab 9K turbo does have a chance, even with 300BHP

  • I now its not meant to catch up.. its just for fun.

    i Mean it would fun to catch up the bmw with a tuned aero.. and see the guys face ;)

    I remember one time i got a old 9000i with rust rust and rust ;)

    Uppsala to Gävle, that nice little bmw 3 series where not so happy that i follow in 200-210 all the way ;) hehe

    And like the poor guys face on his bike when he tried hes topspeed on his bike then a little bmw and a rust saab drive past ;)

  • for sure that's great fun. i have now put some more power into my saab (it's gone 360.000km now, and still running strong). was racing a seat leon cupra in poland, and that guy couldn't catch up... he also had a surprised look on his face, 2nd, and 3d time i went past him :)

  • HAHA LoL you did not stand a chance!!

  • GAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

  • Cool, seems like no one regards the speed limits in sweden

  • lol nice try man.

  • saab didn't stand a chance. good attempt though

  • I have a computer that will let you pass that BMW like nothing... but not too bad for 200HP ;-)

  • One of the coolest video I've seen!

    Thanks for posting guys!

  • grabbar bensin slöseri :P

  • @lechistani:

    A few thing you should think over when chasing at >200kph: - It is crazy - You waste very much fuel  - Watch the engine temperature!

  • der saab hat nicht vollen ladedruck. magnetventil def.? meiner geht bis rot. (405Nm / 2250 U/min)

  • we all knew a 507hp m5 would wreck a saab with 200hp but i love saabs and would still own one of A BMW anyday

  • check engine!!! hehe

  • i would be surprised if 200bhp could beat 500bhp with similar base weights.

    all warnings on a trip computer are on, is it right?

  • Saab tills sista hjärtslaget <3<3<3<3

  • Alltid är det nån som förstör det hela med såna där skitkomentarer...ha de för dig själv...idiot

  • För att ge lite ironi då :)

    Jag är en skånetös själv därav min kommentar ..

  • damn right, " A saab 9-5 will out do a porsche 911 in second year from 30-60"- quoting Jeremy Clarkson from TopGear. I used to own a bimmer and that rust bucket lemon turned to scrap after the first 10 years of its life. C'mon a $52,000 car should last about 20 years. My now 12 year old saab starts and runs like new, every day and yes its fuken faster than the bmw.

  • ya the saab is quicker in that range "passing speeds" because thats where the torque band is for the turbo....is great ha gotta love a 9k

  • wtf!!! °-°

  • haha patetiska nysvenskar

  • hahahahaha fucking pathetic, he aint gotta chance on a m5..

  • You're pathetic; he actually does have a change, if it's a full pressure turbo on the Saab.

  • LOL, keep dreaming. 200 hp against 507 hp???? Forget it.

  • after the movie a audi rs4 smoked the m5 :)

  • Even with 200 hp I prefer driving my Saab 9000 2.3 Turbo (similar as the one on the movie) with front trtansmission than a BMW 5-series with rear transmission ... Which doesn't mean I wouldn't like to try the BMW ! :)

  • 200hp can overcome 507hp if tune up properly, but not for highway
